The value of ∑n=14[100(−4)n−1] is -5368709100
How to evaluate the series?
The sequence is given as:
∑n=14[100(−4)n−1]
The above sequence is a geometric sequence, with the following properties
- First term, a = 100
- Common ratio, r = -4
- Number of terms = 14
The sum of n terms of a geometric series is:
[tex]S_n = \frac{a* (r^n - 1)}{r - 1}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]S_n = \frac{100* ((-4)^{14} - 1)}{-4 - 1}[/tex]
Evaluate
[tex]S_{14} = -5368709100[/tex]
Hence, the value of ∑n=14[100(−4)n−1] is -5368709100
